Finding the right dress for you

Your wedding dress is a defining item in your wedding and every woman wants the perfect dress, but, what might be the perfect dress for one woman doesn’t mean it’s the right dress for you. The first thing you need to consider is the shape or style of the dress and how it will fit your body, as the detailing such as lace, beading, neckline, and waist belts come later. So let’s talk about wedding dress styles and body types.

The A-line Dress: This is the most popular style of wedding dress as it compliments almost every body type. The A-line dress allows women with fewer curves to look curvier and compliments full-bodied women by showing off the curves you love while being slimming in other areas. A line dresses have a fitted bodice with a skirt that gently flares from the waist down to the floor. This dress is best suited for straight, athletic and pear-shaped bodies.

The Empire Dress: The empire dress is an incredibly elegant dress with simple style. A high waistline gently hugs the body showing off your waist and upper torso while a straight skirt falls complimenting your body’s natural figure. The Empire dress with its simple design is ideal for many body types and compliments almost every woman while staying true to simple style without too much overpowering glam. This dress is best suited for straight, athletic and pear-shaped bodies.

The Mermaid Dress: The mermaid dress has become a very popular option for women in recent years as it shows off the natural feminine figure. The mermaid dress will hug your waist, bust, hips and thighs with a flare of the dress below the knee, accentuating all your lovely curves. This dress is best suited for the inverted triangle and hourglass body shapes.

The Ball Gown Dress: This classic and timeless dress is often called the princess dress with its snug fitted bodice and large, full-bodied skirt. The ball gown dress will compliment almost every body type, however, petite and short women should be careful with this type of dress as it may be overpowering. This dress will show off your bust, arms and shoulders while giving the illusion of you floating down the aisle. This dress is best suited for the inverted triangle and hourglass body shapes.

The Sheath Dress: The sheath, also known as the column dress has a long, slim silhouette that follows your natural contours and body shape. The sheath dress, much like the empire dress, is a simple and elegant option for brides looking for a less formal dress that’s comfortable and easy to wear on your big day. This dress is best suited for straight and hourglass body types.
